Subject: Encouraging results from 2.4.10-pre14 + preempt
Date: Sat, 22 Sep 2001 17:38:58 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3BAD2F22.6E151CBD@pobox.com> (raw)
I am very encouraged by the latest linus kernel, and
thought I'd pass this along -
Platform info -
----------------
PIII 933/Intel mobo
512 MB RAM
2 30 GB IDE disks
Ensoniq ES1371 sound card
Red Hat 7.1 + bits of rawhide
kernel 2.4.10-pre14 + preempt patch
The testing was done while running X windows (icewm), Netscape 4.78,
iptraf, and misc other services (named, sendmail, apache, iptables
firewalling etc.
During the dbench runs mpg123 was playing mp3s -
Highlights -
------------
- There was absolutely no mp3 skipping during dbench 16 & 32.
- There was minor skipping during dbench 40, when load was near 40.
- Best of all, the desktop remained completely responsive the entire
time.
dbench summaries:
---------------------------
Throughput 49.6162 MB/sec (NB=62.0202 MB/sec 496.162 MBit/sec) 16
